Theory of Operation
The WebWhip is a high power bidirectional Wi-Fi receiver that helps improve the range
of connectivity between you and a Wi-Fi hotspot. The WebWhip is ideal for use on a
boat, recreational vehicle or campsite to help you connect to a Wi-Fi signal that is out
of range for your phone or computer.
The WebWhip has an omnidirectional antenna that is used to communicate to and
from the Wi-Fi hotspot that you connect to. The antenna just like any other antenna
needs a clear line of sight vision with the hotspot for best reception.
The WebWhip may be connected to any standard wireless access point or wireless
router (Option 1) to create a Wi-Fi hotspot for wireless internet access from a mobile
device like a phone, tablet, or laptop. The WebWhip may also be connected directly to
a laptop through the ethernet port to access internet only on the laptop (Option 2).
Option 1: Option 2:
